B efore installing your scanner, please verify that you have all of the proper components. A list of the package contents is provided in the Box Contents section of this guide.
Software Installation Requirements
Your scanner comes with the image-editing software (Presto! ImageFolio), document management software (Presto! PageManager), the scanner’s driver,
QuickScan Setting and LaserSoft SilverFast software. All of these software applications use approximately 160 megabytes of hard disk space after they are installed into your computer. To ensure ample room for the installation, as well as for scanning and saving images, a minimum of 260 megabytes of hard disk space is recommended.
The USB scanner can only operate under the Microsoft Windows Vista, 2000
Professional or XP operating system.
Hardware Requirements
This scanner connects to your computer through the Universal Serial Bus (USB) which supports hot Plug and Play. To determine whether your computer is USBcapable, you must check the rear of your PC to locate a USB jack that looks the same as the one pictured below. Note that on some computers, the USB port at the rear of the computer may be occupied and additional ports may be found on the monitor or keyboard. If you are having trouble in locating the USB port on your computer, please refer to the hardware manual that came with your computer.
Upon examination, you should find one or two rectangular USB ports, which usually appear as shown below.

Chapter II. Usage and
Maintenance
Operating the Scanner
Your scanner accepts 35mm slides and negatives. However, some software programs have limitations as to the information they can handle. The capacity of the computer’s memory and free space on your hard drive can also limit the physical size of the document that you scan.
There are three different ways to operate the scanner:
1. From within an image-editing program that can acquire images from the scanner.
2. Using QuickScan feature by pressing QuickScan button. The QuickScan
Setting program is automatically installed as your scanner software.
3. Using SilverFast Lanucher by pressing IntelliScan button. This stand alone program allows you to perform advanced scanning features. For further information, please refer to SilverFast User's Manual.
An image-editing program has been bundled with your scanner on the included
Setup/Application CD-ROM. It will allow you to alter and correct any scanned images by using a variety of filters, tools and effects.
QuickScan is a program that allows you to conveniently scan images without the need to work directly within any image-editing application (i.e. Presto! ImageFolio).
Please refer to the QuickScan Setting on-line Help (accessible by clicking on the
QuickScan icon located near the clock icon on the Windows system tray, and choosing Help) for more information about these functions.
F i i l l m H o l l d e r s

11
Attention
For correct scan results, always turn the film with the top of the image facing towards the back of the scanner (where power cord and USB cord located) and keep emulsion (non-glossy) side down.
There is text on the top and bottom of the film, such as manufacturer, frame numbers, film codes, batch numbers...etc.
With the film oriented correctly as described above, this text should be read clearly (i.e., not backwards or up-side-down).
12
I n s e r t t t t h e f f i i l l m h o l l d e r
Insert the film holder into the scanner through dust cover. The film holder can be inserted from either side. The film holder will index at each frame using the notches on its side rails.
Please allow about 40 cm of space on both sides of the scanner to insert and remove the film holder.
Attention
You can feel the film holder stop in its index position. However, before performing scan, please gently push and pull the film holder to make sure the film holder is in correct position.

16
Source - Tells the scanner the method you will use to scan images.
• Transparency - Use this mode for scanning transparency films.
• Negative Film - Use this mode for scanning negative films.
Scan Mode - Tells the scanner the type of document you are scanning. There are three settings to choose from:
• 16-bit grayscale – scans in more than 65,000 shades of gray, improving the realism of b/w images.
• 24-bit Color - scans in millions of colors for photo-realism. Choose this mode when scanning color slide or negatives.
• 48-bit Color – scans in billions of colors for professional imaging requiring precise uniformity of color.
Resolution - Resolution is measured in dots per inch (dpi). The higher the resolution, the more detailed the image, and the more memory and drive space the image will use.
Filter - Filters help you improve your scans by allowing you to sharpen images as well as remove excessive dots and distortion.
None
Average: Determines the medium depth of an image and averages adjacent pixels to make images appear softer.
Blur: Lets you dull the edges within an image, and decreases the contrast by making dark edges lighter and light edges darker.
Blur More: Adds additional blurring.
Sharpen: Allows you to sharpen the edges within an image by making the edges in an image more distinct. The Sharpen filter also increases contrast by making dark edges darker and surrounding light edges lighter.
Sharpen More: Adds additional sharpening.
Unsharpen:
Sharpens the edges in an image to remove the blurriness.
Brightness - This is the amount of light that is concentrated onto a document while it is being scanned.
17
Contrast - Contrast adjusts the tonal range of an image by lowering mid-tone values and increasing values for high and low tones.
Image Gamma is used to adjust the colors in the image that will be scanned into the computer. By adjusting the gamma, you can change the tonal range of the selected color channel. Gamma values are primarily a measure of the brightness of a color.
The larger the gamma value, the brighter the color becomes.
Note:
By changing the gamma values you affect the image data, and influence how the image displays on your computer’s monitor, and printer.
18
Purpose
This menu include File, Page Manager, Photoshop, Image Folio functions, which allows you to determine which software you would like to use for the post-processing of the scanned image(s).
Auto Density
Checking this box automatically adjusts the Histogram to make the scanned image clearer. It does this by increasing the difference between color tones.
This feature is available in both Transparency and Negative Film modes.
Color Matching
This feature provides a particular color matching technique to maintain colors consistency between your output and the original image.
This feature is available in Transparency mode only.
Attention
Due to different color processing method, Auto Density feature and
Color Matching feature cannot be applied simultaneously. If Auto
Density is checked, then Color Matching feature will be in gray-out status and unavailable. Likewise, if Color Matching is checked, then
Auto Density feature will be in gray-out status and unavailable.
Color Enhancement
This feature is to compensate negative’s underexposed Green and Blue channels.
If this feature is checked, pre-scan and scan time will noticeably increase.
This feature is available in Negative mode only.
Auto Crop
When this box is checked, the QuickScan program will identify the dimensions of the image you scanned and crop around the edges. The crop shape will be a square or rectangle and it will not trace the edges of oddly-shaped images.
